Hello Micheal & All, Thanks to Micheal for adding his experience with SHB. Micheal has many informative posts on the Florida beekeepers list. As you see Micheal does not talk of the pads and strips. They simply do not work with a large infestation. Micheal is right in line with what my Florida friends are saying. IPM and cleanup are the way of the future. Bob Ps. Maybe Micheal will comment on the SHB article in this months ABJ? Freedom of speach on the internet!
